POST MIDDLE EAST MOVIE REVIEWS HERE

Some possibilities, though I am open to others. Remember, the point of watching one of these is to expand our understanding and challenge our own particular point of view. So here are just some suggestions:
Munich (about the attack at the 72 Olympics and Israel’s response)
Paradise Now (about two friends who enter the process to become suicide bombers, targeting Israel)
Promises (about Israeli and Palestinian children sharing experiences)
The following are about the Iraq War:
Body of War
No End in Sight
In the Valley of Elah
The Dreams of Sparrows

Africa Movie Time

Here are the options. You can search online for a synopsis of each, but all have been recommended:
Bamako (this relates a lot to our class; more info here
The others you've probably heard of:
The Last King of Scotland
Blood Diamond
Hotel Rwanda
Sankofa (may be difficult to find)
Out of Africa
Roots (any one of the series)
Cry Freedom
The Power of One
The Constant Gardener
